[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually think it is about the money for DD and honestly that’s understandable. It sounds like this marriage from the get go was about OP and her husband and not a real unification of the step-kids at all. Maybe DD was tolerant of that for years but the ramifications financially of this rather distant set up and its implications for her future are sinking in now. [/quote] But even the way you frame it shows it's not just about the money. The money is the way that the lack of family integration is manifesting. The marriage is about OP and her husband, and the daughter is not really family. Probably this is driven home every holiday and birthday, via the disparity in gifts. But this is something more important, and it's really sending home the message that DD isn't a full member of this family. [/quote]
